Buspirone for anxiety: any side effects?

Can anyone tell me the pros and cons on Buspar? Currently I’m taking Celexa 40 mg. Slowly increased dosage because my psychiatrist knows how sensitive I am. Been on 40mg about 3 weeks. My anxiety and stress has been high ever since pandemic. I was on Celexa for years and then I eventually stopped it in 2020. At that time my psychiatrist wasn’t seeing patients. When I started seeing him again he tried different meds that didn’t work. I had trouble with Pristiq and probably weaned off too fast. Also on Xanax 3.75 mg a day. Different intervals. I’m afraid to get on another med especially Buspar. I’ve been nauseous probably from anxiety. Possible not being on Celexa long enough. Thank you.
